The use of the property for the <br /> home occupation shall be clearly incidental and subordinate to <br /> its residential use_,. <br /> 32.01 -2 EMPLOYEES. The home occupation shall be carried on by <br /> a member of the family residing on the property with not more <br /> than one employee who is not part of the family. <br /> 32.01 -3 OUTSIDE APPEARANCE.

Mr. March added, City Hall /Fire <br /> Department is located next door to the property and a fleet of <br /> security cars are directly across County Road 14. Mr. March <br /> added, the facility is on an unusually large lot. <br /> Ms. Broussard- Vickers stated based on ordinance 32.01 -3 OUTSIDE <br /> APPEARANCE - the outside structure would be altered exclusively <br /> for the purpose of a home business, which is prohibited. In her <br /> opinion, the Commissions responsibility is to enforce the present <br /> ordinances. Therefore, Ms. Broussard- Vickers does not favor <br /> approving the variance request. <br /> Mr. Buckbee disagreed with government dictating what a property <br /> owner can and cannot do with a garage. <br /> Mr. Buckbee moved and it was seconded to close the variance <br /> 2 <br />
